If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to live in a Rs 10-lakh-a-month bungalow (According to property registration documents accessed by IndexTap.com) in one of Mumbai’s most exclusive neighbourhoods, eat home-cooked yakhni while sitting under a mirror inscribed with dua, and park your brand-new Mercedes GLS outside a house where Bollywood royalty casually pop in for chai — you need to step inside Huma Qureshi’s not-so-humble abode. But behind the glitz and art-covered walls of this opulent sanctuary lies a chilling family tragedy that’s shaken the actress to the core.

Huma’s journey has not been typical, going from her humble beginnings in Delhi to Mumbai, where she became an artistic superstar. And just as she’s beginning to settle into what she calls her “middle-class dream” (Read: palatial bungalow with a private pool), she’s had to face the unimaginable — the loss of her cousin Asif Qureshi in a horrific incident of urban violence in Delhi.

Who was Asif Qureshi? Know everything that happened

Late Thursday evening in Delhi’s bustling Nizamuddin area, a disagreement over something as everyday as a parking spot turned deadly. Huma’s cousin, 42-year-old Asif Qureshi, allegedly asked two men to move their vehicle from the entrance of his home. What started out as a verbal argument turned into a fatal argument. The two men left — only to return with vengeance, allegedly attacking and killing Asif.

According to reports, Asif, who was married to two women and owned a chicken business, had previously been involved in parking disputes with the neighbors. It serves as a sobering reminder that long-standing tensions can escalate out of control even in tightly knit residential areas. NDTV reported the arrest of two suspects, but for Huma and her family, the damage is irrevocable.

Juhu Bungalow: Where Art Meets Abundance

Back in Mumbai, where life usually runs at a very different pace, Huma Qureshi and brother Saqib Saleem have carved out a dreamy, luxurious life. Their Juhu bungalow, which they rent out for an incredible Rs 10 lakh per month, is a model of sophisticated living with a healthy dose of personality. Farah Khan, ever the candid guest, couldn’t stop gushing during her vlog visit: “This is the best home in the whole of Mumbai!”

The 3,370 sq ft residence doesn’t just impress with size. It has a waiting room that is bigger than most people’s living rooms, a lush main hallway with beige sofas and greenery peeking through glass doors, a private pool that screams Sunday afternoon lounging, and a dining area with mirrors that are said to increase the value of the house by twofold. Whether you believe in Vastu or not, the charm is hard to deny.

Fun fact Farah Khan gave a carpet as a housewarming present, but the place’s grandeur made it look ridiculously small. She made the wry comment, “It’s too small,” and Huma replied, “Don’t worry, you’ll get another chance to gift us something.”

Art, Yakhni, and Google-Driven Curation

This isn’t just a home — it’s a gallery. The walls are adorned with artwork that tells stories, some of them literally made of mud and clay. One standout piece by a Japanese artist particularly caught Farah’s eye. The sibling duo also flaunted works by Goan artist Subodh Kerkar and even a mirror etched with prayers — proof that every detail in the house carries a tale.
“We’ve always loved art,” Huma said. “Earlier, we didn’t have the money. Now we do, so we’re investing in it.” Saqib, ever the comic, teased her about Googling artists before buying, and Farah didn’t hold back: “So you’ve become a curator now?”
There’s also a sentimental layer — gifts from actor-friends like Rajkummar Rao and Patralekhaa grace the walls. The kitchen, on the other hand, keeps things grounded, despite the fact that the indoor style is more museum-like. It’s a place where their mother whips up traditional dishes, like mutton yakhni, while Farah points out — quite triumphantly — that there’s no AC in sight. “Because we are poor,” Huma deadpans, before joking about how all the money went into buying art, not mixers.
A Legacy of Hustle and Humour
Behind the splendor is a hardworking family. Saqib revealed that their father founded the famed Saleem’s restaurant in Delhi when he was just 17 — an institution now 47 years old. Their mother, Ameena Qureshi, runs a salon named AMIQUR. Clearly, the entrepreneurial gene runs deep in the family.
It’s not all business, though. Saqib wanted to make the outdoor area into a cricket field, but Huma made a funny threat to him. Farah, stuck in the middle, laughed, “You’ve got an art gallery, a pool, and possibly a cricket ground — you’ve basically built a luxury resort.”

The Mercedes, The Money, The Movies

While Huma keeps her finances under wraps, reports estimate her net worth at around Rs 23 crore. And it shows. The actress recently added a sleek black Mercedes-Benz GLS 400 D to her garage — a beast of a car with a top speed of 238 kmph and the ability to go from 0 to 100 in just 6.3 seconds. Paired with a 9G-Tronic gearbox and a 3.0L turbocharged diesel engine, this machine isn’t for the faint-hearted.

She also owns a Land Rover Freelander, another nod to her taste for robust elegance.

From Gangs of Wasseypur to Maharani: The Mumbai Hustle

It wasn’t always opulence and four-wheel drives. In 2008, Huma moved from Delhi to Mumbai with dreams bigger than her tiny first flat. She auditioned relentlessly before landing commercials with Hindustan Unilever. She made her big-screen debut in Gangs of Wasseypur (2012), directed by Anurag Kashyap. Since then, she has starred in notable OTT films like Leila, Tarla, and Maharani.

As Farah pointed out during their house tour, “Your homes just kept getting bigger.” Huma smiled, replying, “This was my middle-class dream. When you don’t have a bungalow, you won’t feel like a movie star.

Fun fact: Despite all the luxury, the actress insists on calling her extravagant Juhu bungalow a “middle-class dream.” Call it self-effacing charm or Delhi realism — but it’s refreshing.

In the End: A Star Shaped by Love, Loss and Lemon Curtains

The joy of celebrating success in a house filled with laughter, art, and lemon-colored curtains (yes, they are a thing in the Qureshi-Saleem residence) juxtaposes with the grief of losing a loved one to a senseless act of violence. However, perhaps that is the reason why Huma Qureshi’s story is so relatable. She remains grounded, funny, and fiercely proud of her family, both the ones she has lost and the ones she has returned to, despite her fame.

Behind every mirror that multiplies abundance and every curated painting lies a story that began in a crowded Delhi lane. And Huma carries both the glitter of stardom and the scars of struggle with her as she continues to move forward, whether she is at the wheel or holding a script.
